Animated Short [Lament of the Fallen] Japanese Dub Version - Honkai Impact 3rd

Lightning tore our past asunder,
and our paths were rent and split.
Once the thunders lose voice, and the storms are wept dry,
I’ll enter the darkness and return you to bliss.
※This animated short is a production of miHoYo Anime. Featured Valkyrie theme "Houkai Sekai no Utahime (Honkai World Diva)" is created by in-house music team HOYO-MiX and performed by Mika Kobayashi.

Mei: "If rescuing you is a sin, I'll gladly become a sinner." Otto: "The malice of this world shall be sundered by the villain." Also "How many crimes must he commit to save her from the depths of hell." I like how both characters are so different yet they want the same thing; to save their special someone. It's just the matter on how you understand the circumstances and situations within the story whether you acknowledge or give humor about it.

[@r3ll282]

the various motivations and reasons by the characters really puts everyone on a grey area. "The opposite of justice is not evil but instead another justice" you can see that everyone have their own goals and reason for their actions, and it is by circumstance that they choose which evil or good they are willing to commit putting them at the border between what we deem "evil" and "good" and thats one of the best things about this game Everyone have depth to their character and they are not some one sided troupe or cheap inserts to the story.

[@williamtang3928]

Here we go again with the “Naruto vs Sasuke trope”. These two are like a version of Naruto and Sasuke where they are officially a couple yet Sasuke wants to save Naruto by going rogue and becoming the darkness of the ninja world, but as a result Naruto will be all alone again. In defiance, Naruto fights Sasuke to stop him from killing especially leaving his side. 😢

[@namikazenara9379]

Let's be honest. Mei would gladly become second Otto for Kiana

[@cipher-one]

​@@namikazenara9379 Give or take maybe. Mei still at least other people to lean on where Otto never did. Dude was basically born a sociopath (due in part to growing up with a shitty family) who had no real connection to humanity outside of Kallen specifically, so when she died he unsurprisingly slowly went off the deep end. Sushang was probably the closest he got to making an actual friend again, but then she got put on ice literally which leaves Otto all alone again.

Otto is solidly implied to be Loki in some way. And Mei is compared to the Devil. Different mythologies, roughly same entity.

[@sandraseward4139]

I heard her in a few other games/series. She has a lot of sultry roles and gentle sounding roles. Such as Izuna in No Game No Life, Ivy Valetine in recent Soulcalibur games, And she's the voice of Raiden Shogun for Genshin Impact. like Yae Miko, Raiden Shogun has some similarities to Raiden Mei, both have similar appearances, surnames and same voice actresses. With both games being developed by the same user mihoyo, these similarities could have a hidden message.

[@raptureparadox]

@@sandraseward4139 it's already known that Teyvat is part of the Imaginary tree. So the two universes are connected in more ways than one. The archons so far resemble Herrschers in Honkai. Venti and Wendy, Zhongli and Welt, Mei and Raiden etc. I wouldn't be surprised if the Pyro archon resembles Himeko. There's also the fact that Otto was observing a dragon image at the end of Chapter 17 which was confirmed to be Dvalin. Raiden Shogun's whole attitude really resembles the Herrscher of Thunder.

4:30 surely hurts the most. Most Japanese don't use sayonara just simply when you wanted to say goodbye. It give a deeper meaning when you said sayonara to someone. Almost like you felt that you might not met them again. And the way Mei said it to Kiana. It's might be because Mei knew that after this fight, even if they met in the future... They'll be strangers to each other.

It's sad how Kiana still tries to hold back her power from killing Mei knowing how deadly it is. I'm surprised of how Himeko manage to fend of all of that lethal strike.

[@mizzuryu7969]

Don't compare this Kiana HOV with the one himeko against, currently she already lost one of her gems (or 2 I forgot if mei took the gem of serenity too) in this fight (which supply her powers), not to mention the one who fighting is Kiana who still not used with her void power. different with the fight with Himeko as she already has 3 gems and with Sirin took the fight an experiences void user. Her peak form is 6 gems if I'm not wrong in 2nd honkai impact.

[@apidpichiuw1911]

just noted that kiana on critical state, and kiana use her power just to threaten instead of literally strike like mei, she's too kind to do that not saying mei is inferior, they both herrscher. if they fight seriously they just gonna killing each other. this absolutely a holding back fight with mei a bit serious there

[@aaronkreidl5217]

I don't think she did. She traded a fatal injury just to get Sirin to drop her guard long enough to get on top of her. Or she just got caught off guard and combod and Sirin figured a mere human couldn't possibly survive after that

[@haggay6597]

I don't think kiana can use hov powers to their full potential, because hov is supposed to require strategy and thats where it's most deadly. HoF suits her brute-force capabilites more

Lack of combatants and a capable leader, bad mission plans (thanks a lot, Anti-Entropy), frailty caused by Honkai corruption, the World Serpent... these are the reasons why Kiana lost to Mei.
